DOHA: Carlos Alcaraz came from behind to beat Karen Khachanov 6-7 (3/7), 6-4, 6-3 on Thursday and book his spot in the semifinals of the Qatar Open. Playing his first tournament since completing his career Grand Slam at the Australian Open earlier in February, Alcaraz will next face Andrey Rublev for a spot in the final in Doha. “It was a really close and tight match,” Alcaraz said after his quarter-final win. “I think Karen was playing great, but I knew I’d had my chances. I just didn’t take them in the first set, so it was the time to keep going and try to keep fighting.
